CHESTER G. CLARENCE

     Died April 1, 1907, Chester Grant Clarence, aged 2 years, 1 month and 14 days. The funeral was conducted by George Darland. The remains were followed to the last resting place in the Spring Creek cemetery, by a large crowd of friends and neighbors. The family has our sincere sympathy in their first bereavement. Thus another precious blossom is transplanted to make Heaven brighter.

When we hear the music ringing,
In the bright celestial dome;
When sweet angels voices singing,
Gladly bid us welcome home,
To the land of ancient story,
Where the spirit has no care.
In that land of life and glory
We shall know each other there.
When the holy angels meet us,
As we go to join their band,
Then the dear one shall greet us
In that glorious spirit land.
We shall see the same eyes shining,
On us as in days of the yore.
We shall feel the dear arms twining
Fondly round us as before.

-- Veritas
